“Miss Hoag, it’s me Gray Tyler,” the man said through the door to Emily.

Emily figured this was one of those times that the Serenity Prayer talked about having courage and prayed she wouldn’t burst into tears or have a panic attack.

“Hold on,” she called as she fumbled with the chain and opened the door. She found herself staring into the face of a beautiful woman with compassionate black eyes.

“Hello?” Emily said tentatively.

The woman smiled but didn’t say anything.

“Allow me to introduce you,” the tall blonde man who stood behind the woman said. Emily found herself staring up at Gray Tyler. “Emily, this is my fiancée, Riya Patel. She wanted to be with you when we went to the hospital.”

“I don’t understand, though,” Emily looked from Gray to Riya and then back again. “I didn’t know that Wyatt had a brother.”

“He has three brothers,” Gray said.

Emily sagged against the doorjamb.

That hurt. It hurt a lot. Was there anything that Wyatt actually shared about himself?

Emily did her best to pull herself together, then she asked a question. “Were you able to find Ben Leeds at Mercy? Did you find out if he’s okay?”

“His name is Ben Mazur, and he’s holding his own,” Gray said.

“Gray told me about all of this, and I know this is difficult and confusing,” Riya gave soft smile. “Most things are. If you would come with us, Gray can explain. He’s good at that.”

Emily pushed up from the door and pasted a broad smile on her face. It was the best one she had, and it wouldn’t last long. She needed them to leave and fast.

“That’s okay, you just go ahead without me. I need to get back to my apartment,” Emily said.

“What?” Riya looked confused. “I thought you wanted us to take you to Wyatt’s brother.”

Emily’s hair covered her face and strands got caught in her mouth as she said, “No.”

“Why not?” Riya asked, her growing frustration was obvious.

“Look, Wyatt obviously doesn’t trust me. He didn’t want me to know about his brothers, so it’s best if I don’t go.”

“I don’t agree,” Gray said in a soft and soothing tone.

Emily winced. He’d used that same kind of voice back in Saudi Arabia. It was all too much. Tears pricked the back of her eyes. She needed to get back to her apartment.

Riya turned around and looked up at Gray. “Help her. Make her feel better,” she demanded.

Gray put his hands-on Riya’s shoulders and gently moved her out of the way, then he came within two feet of Emily and crouched down so that they were at eye level.

“Emily, I don’t know if this will make you feel better, but Wyatt has never told any of us about his brothers.”

“I don’t understand, then how do you know he has three?”

Gray ran his hand over his head in the same way Wyatt did. “I always do a thorough background check on all men before they come onto my team. I’m not going to go into all of the gory details of Wyatt’s childhood.
